Sharon station (New York Central Railroad)

The Sharon station was one of two former New York Central Railroad (NYC) stations that served the residents of Amenia, New York via the Harlem Line.

This station was named for and served the nearby town of Sharon, Connecticut.

Depending on the source, Sharon station began serving both passengers and freight in either 1873 or 1875.

It was one of the stations on the Harlem Line to serve the Berkshire Hills Express and other limited stop trains that went from New York City all the way to Pittsfield, Massachusetts and North Adams, Massachusetts in the Berkshires.

The station building was damaged by a fire in 1997, but was bought by a local family and restored.
